We can clearly see that the blank is preceded by the definite article "the". Now, a superlative degree usually comes with “the” before it.
For example: The boy is the tallest in his class.
So, it should be filled with a superlative degree. “Poorest” is the only superlative degree here. "Poor" is the positive degree and "poorer" is the comparative degree.
"Pooring" can be used as the noun meaning Impoverishment.
Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank No.2
The blank needs to be filled with a verb.
Now, "is" is used in the continuous tense as an auxiliary verb. “Is / am / are + verb + ing” is the correct structure of the progressive or continuous tense.
For example: I am doing my homework.
So, “is” before the blank is a hint that “-ing” form should come in the blank.
Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank No.3
